What Personally Identifiable Information is Collected on this Site?

When you visit our website, you may provide us with personal information (such as name, address, e-mail address, telephone numbers and/or credit/debit card information) that you knowingly choose to disclose, which is collected on an individual basis for various purposes, including: registering to receive e-mail newsletters or other materials, requesting further information from us about programs and events, donating to us, submitting a form on our website, or registering for an event. We receive and store any information you enter on our website or give us in any other way. This information is retained and used in accordance with existing laws, rules, regulations, and other policies. CEF does not collect personal information from you unless you provide it to us. If you choose not to provide any information, we may not be able to fulfill your request or complete your transaction, but you will still be free to browse the other sections of the website owned and administered by CEF. This means that you can visit our site without telling us who you are or revealing any personally identifiable information about yourself.

When you supply information about yourself for a specific purpose, we use the information for only that purpose (such as to provide the service or information you have requested). We do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete that transaction. CEF does not sell, rent, give away or share its e-mail addresses or other information with outside sources.

Should any material changes be made to the ways in which we use personally identifiable information, we will post the changes on our site.

Our Commitment to Data Security

Personally identifiable information is only accessed by CEF personnel on a "need to know" basis. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. Additionally, sensitive data such as credit card numbers are encrypted using SSL and other industry standard measures to provide an additional level of security.
